Porsche Shows Off New GT3's Tech Goodies
Combining performance with everyday practicality

The two lastes tricks in Porsche's arsenal may be the new turbos introduced last week, but around here the GT badged cars will always have the top spot in our hearts. One of the most impressive bits of tech added to the 991 GT3 is the new active rear wheel steering, which allows the rear wheels to steer in the opposite direction of the fronts at low speeds, and in the same direction as the fronts at high speeds.

Noted in the video description, "Porsche is using active rear wheel steering in order to achieve even higher precision and lateral dynamics. Depending on the speed, the new 911 GT3 steers in the same or opposite direction of the front wheels, improving stability and agility."

Check out some of the technical highlights of the new 911 GT3 in this clip below.

I hope the rumors aren't true about voiding the warranty if used on the track

Wow!!! Wow, Wow, Wow! Man, can't help but think that the front view of that RSR looks so much like the test mule GT1:

Watch from 2.12 on:
